I tried to set Thunderbird working with an MS exchange server on my w2k box at work. Realised it was quite impossible to make it work, and more difficult even because we are on an Active Directory, and the exchange settings are inherited from our AD profiles.

Well I haven't found anything about connecting on exchange with thunderbird on internet, except some IMAP tips , and news about a gateway to MS Exchange from NOVELL that comes open source ...

Maybe if someone have a clue about it, feel free to post here

At least in my local version ...

The align dialog contents changes when you select the Node tool, and lets you align/distribute the selected nodes.

For the momment, nodes are always aligned on the first selected node, but the select master combo box should be operational soon.

Edit : Now distribute nodes also works :

Binary packages should land soon ...

Things are shaping up. A few more work and I'll reach the point of iso functionalities with the previous code. The GUI part is done, I just have to plug it with the existing engine.

I'm afraid I will not port the engine part to C++ for now, as it depends from too many things, themselves used everywhere in the app (Namedly SP desktop and the selection functions).

I also spent a few minutes to draw new icons for the align buttons. You can grab them from the sourcefore patch tracker. Here is the state of the beast

By the way, it remains only one required bug to fix for 0.39. This should come soon

I was stuck on Inkscape code since a good week. Then I went on IRC ...

Things are moving slowly, but moving ... I try to write the infrastructure for a gimp2-like docker. With GtkMM and C++ code only. Ok, the path is long, here am I :

I know how to make a window (year, great), a notebook (amazing), and even VBoxes and Buttons (with Images too !). Well, for the little I've seen, the GtkMM API looks great, but I need more experience to ensure it is actually good. For you impatients, a little screenie of what's going on :
